- Description or summary of the audiobook: For our unnamed narrator, who first encounters this 'star' in a college poetry workshop, Ruiz-Tagle becomes the silent hand behind every evil act in the darkness of Pinochet's regime. The narrator, unable to stop himself, tries to track Ruiz-Tagle down, and sees signs of his activity over and over again. A corrosive, mocking humor sparkles within Bolano's darkest visions of Chile under Pinochet. In Bolano's world there's a big graveyard and there's a big graveyard laugh. (He once described his novelBy Night in Chile as 'a tale of terror, a situation comedy, and a combination pastoral-gothic novel.') Many Chilean authors have written about the 'bloody events of the early Pinochet years, the abductions and murders,' Richard Eder commented in theThe New York Times: 'None has done it in so dark and glittering a fashion as Roberto Bolano.'
